Service to Others
Naketa's career was in serving people. After experiencing burnout being an employee, she turned her expertise and passion into a business that she controlled.
Naketa Ren Thigpen: "My background and foundation is as a licensed clinical social worker, trauma specialist, psychotherapist, sexologist and Relationship Expert.
Our company is a personal development company and we serve power couples and potent humans. Our potent humans are phenomenal visionaries, women entrepreneurs. We're helping them have some intentionally selfish focus time on themselves."
SelfCare, putting you 1st is not selfish. It's necessary in elevating our voices as women of color and in living dream lifestyles.
People Helping People
So many of our paths involve helping others. Naketa talks more about this and how she empowers her clients.
Naketa Ren Thigpen: "My secret is helping people balanced boldly which its also the name of our podcast. I help people recalibrate and own their right to be intentionally selfish. We've redefined the word selfish so you can reclaim your power and not be stuck in what we'll say is conventional wisdom or the patriarchy, which told us that being selfish choosing yourself first taking care of what you need to make sure that your reservoir your vessel is sealed."
Use the revealed secret in balanced boldly by owning your life, using your voice, tapping into your power.
Work Life Integration
Is it Work Life Balance? Work Life Integration? OR, something else?
Naketa Ren Thigpen: "I say work life and love balance. Because love is my yummy my yummy space. There's no 50/50 relationship. There will never be any space where it will be even at all times. I define balance as your truth over your boundaries.
Set up some boundaries so you don't get distracted from your truth. So that way you stay full enough for you first because that's important for the legacy you're creating the philanthropy you want to do the all the altruistic things that you're doing in the world."
Put your mask on 1st as they say when flying. You are you #1 priority.
Mirror Talk
Mirror Talk is where you choose a statement or an affirmation, face yourself in the mirror and repeat the statement, like a mantra. This allows you to look yourself in the eyes while stating positive messages.
Naketa Ren Thigpen: "Get a mirror and look at yourself. Look in your eyes and look at your skin and say something like whatever your name is, I love you. You are worthy of every good thing. I forgive you. I release you from the secrets from the shame from the guilt, the frustration and the rage. I release you and I love you more than life itself.."
Some of us avoid looking at ourselves for whatever reason(s). Let today be the day you shift . Look yourself in the eyes and love on you.

"Being intentionally selfish is gifting yourself."

"Amplify intimacy in all the ways."
"Don't be anchored to an expired expectation that's weighing you down and keeping you from inviting boundless expansion in."
